I switched from Gmail to Proton, but now with everything coming out about Proton I’m switching from them too. I started using Posteo which I like but a lot of my accounts having to do with money and finance (including my bank) aren’t accepting the Posteo email. They have rejected it over and over and even locked me out stating that I was hacked.

Do you guys have any recommendations for email providers to use that also won’t send red flags to my more official accounts?

If it helps, I’m US-based.

    I respect your choice and right, Tuta is not compatible with PGP, but that doesn’t mean I (a Tuta user) can’t send an encrypted message to someone on another service or receive one. In that scenario, there’s just a bit of server code that users interact with in between to enable my encrypted message to be read by others outside of Tuta.

    The process is documented here: https://tuta.com/blog/email-encryption-guide-how-send-encrypted-email

    If the email’s recipient is on Tuta, they just read my message in any of the available client apps.

    I agree just supporting PGP as an option in Tuta would be better, but I think someone considering their options should know about the above. The current Tuta process works for me.
